In a city like Spokane, brunch and breakfast play a crucial role in many people’s lives. Because the city has such a fun and diverse restaurant scene, it’s easy to find a place that matches your tastes and preferences. And Spokane knows such an important meal should not simply be reserved for leisurely weekend meals. Satisfy your cravings with breakfast and brunch in Spokane served all week long.
Bruncheonette
1011 W Broadway Avenue
The name says it all! The menu at Bruncheonette is prepared with fresh, wholesome, as scratch-made as possible ingredients for everyone to enjoy.

Popular on the menu are Smoked Brisket Hash, Chicken Fried Steak, and a Brunch Burger topped with egg. For something sweet, try the Brioche Style Bacon Sticky Bun topped with a brown sugar sticky glaze and vanilla cream cheese — if the fresh-baked goodness hasn’t sold out already.
For a later in the day meal, try one of Bruncheonette’s handhelds like the Monte Cristo Sandwich with oven-roasted turkey, smoked ham, Swiss cheese, dijon aioli, strawberry jam on grilled egg-battered brioche with one of the following sides: country potato medley, house salad, fries, tots, or Greek yogurt topped with honey.
“We had a wonderful time here and enjoyed our food and drinks! My date enjoyed the chorizo biscuits and gravy, and we both had really delicious coffee cocktails,” says Carmen Michener.
